Another day, another injury in the Bears secondary.
A day after Kyler Gordon was an injury concern with a heel injury, and after it was announced earlier in the week Jaquan Brisker had a concussion, the Bears reported Tyrique Stevenson has a calf injury.
The injury wasn’t serious enough to keep Stevenson out of their only full practice of this week but he was able to participate only on a limited basis.
So three members of the secondary have been affected by injury this week. The positive part of this was Gordon went through a full practice Thursday despite his heel injury.
Guard Teven Jenkins went from being listed as limited if there had been a regular practice Wednesday, to getting the day off on Thursday. He’s trying to get over an ankle injury and missing a practice this late when he hasn’t practiced yet this week isn’t a good sign. The Bears may need to turn to Bill Murray at left guard, or put Matt Pryor there and use Nate Davis at right guard. The coaches liked the way Murray played last week and could keep a lineup with both opening-day backups on the field, Murray and Pryor.
